The demo cd is basically a Ubuntu desktop on a CD. Ubuntu does not set a root password by default. Instead it uses sudo. If you want a root prompt you would type this:
Code: Select all
sudo su -

No he is referring to the Live CD which does not have a root password set. But you can get to a root shell prompt by typing
Code: Select all
sudo su -

in a linux terminal.
